i NEVER see it talked about just how little representation nonbinary or agender regressors get. everything on here is either "girlre" or "boyre" and if neither applies to you, good luck feeling like you have any place in this community cause its not gonna happen.
i am a nonbinary regressor and I EXIST TOO. i am an agender regressor and I EXIST TOO. so why does it feel like i dont? why should i feel unloved compared to girl and boy regressors? why should i feel like an afterthought?
this applies to caregivers and flips too. i see caregiver imagines that just put "mama/dada" and Completely disregard the fact that NONBINARY PEOPLE and GENDER NEUTRAL TITLES EXIST!!!!
its frustrating. its isolating. its lonely. exorsexism is so damn prominent in so many places and i wish this wasnt one of them, because this is meant to be a safe space, and i do not always feel safe here.
back in my day we used to cross fandoms without explanation...so may i dabble in some tf141 x reader x winter soldier bucky barnes... just let me cook okay...
you used to work with the avengers back before things went to complete shit. once that happened, as a part of relocation services offered by SHIELD, you were offered a liaison role at a military base in England. it was the best option at the time so you took it, and once you settled in with everyone on base you never thought your worlds would collide.
but collide they did, on a frigid op somewhere way up in eastern europe, you and the rest of the team arrive to the coordinates to find the bunker completely empty, save for the bodies strewn everywhere. when a flash of muscle drops from the ceiling and catches you off guard, Ghost grabs the offender and throws him across the room.
a few shots ring out, but the stranger holds up an arm and the bullets tinker off as he approaches. you and the rest of the team are clad in balaclavas, helping to shield your faces from the bitter wind. once you get your bearings again he's ripped the gun from Ghost's grip and the two are locking arms as you realize who is is.
"Bucky!" you call out, the brunette's head snapping to the direction of your voice as you pull off your mask. he looks at you confused, before reaching up with his metal arm to stop Ghost's punch, tossing him to the side like he weighed as much as a phone book.
Price, Gaz, and especially Soap all gawk at the shiny metal arm that just threw their best and strongest soldier 20 feet. confusing them even more is you, running up to the offender and wrapping him in a hug. a hug.
after some brief explanations and tense introductions, everyone is on the same page. Bucky is after the same Russian arms dealer you are, so he falls in step with you as you all walk out and to your rendezvous point.
back at your safe house, you and Bucky catch up over tea, laughing over old jokes about the everyone's short lived time living at the Avengers Tower.
little do you know that Ghost is nursing his ego in the other room. the other three assuring him that he didn't need to feel bad about getting manhandled by a super soldier. but he was still pouting, and no one said anything but they knew it was because he had grown attached to you after you got hurt under his watch a few months back.
and though he would never admit it, he liked being the strongest man you knew. but apparently he was the strongest...regular human guy you knew. was he recalling you correctly when you said there was another super soldier you knew who was blonde?
Now this feels like setup for a jealous Loid moment. At least to me. Endo could go in a lot of different directions. But between the gossipy coworkers and that little flash of pure panic at the start of the conversation.
Btw fic writers/ artists steal away if anything catches your eye.
Idk what to name the au (any recommendations are welcome)
Ok so Lilly is still bound to dark enchantress like on a soul level right.
Well in my twisted mind I think dark enchantress is cursed with the need to consume other cookies like a vampire, so white lily experiences changes to her body from the “soul link”.
Examples:
She grows wings, a tail, and antennas.
Her canines grow longer and she experiences the same craving for cookie flesh.
(With the current catacombs of silence update I’d say these drastic changes happened much quicker bc of silent salt and white lily’s fight iykyk.)
Also with this au when the ancients awakened it killed the power of the soul jams on both sides, so what power the ancients and beasts have is very little on the magic side of things.
So everyone is left stranded in beast yeast with no powers. >:3
Most of my focus in this au was on how Lily reacted to forced body modification and how she was closer to being dark enchantress cookie again.
And her interactions with others while this happens.
(This au was developed before the silent salt updates so I wasn’t sure what salt and lily’s interactions were going to be like.)
(But it would be funny if salt was w/ her the entire time panicking bc he thinks he caused this.)
Most of my focus was on interactions between her, smilk, and nilla.
Bc I think their dynamic (especially w/ out much power) was the most interesting.
But I definitely think interaction between lily and the other ancients/beasts while this happens is fun too.
Ship and head cannons as a treat for reaching the end. :3
I’m a rare shadowlily shipper lol
(and I’m a shadonilla and silentlily shipper too)
Lily and nilla being qpp (whilst both dating that fuck ass jester is funny)
And Lily being mad scientist when it comes to magic.
(she would attempt to do some sort of shape shifting, when her body is most definitely not made for that, after seeing smilk do it.)
